Today, I’m sending The Left-Hand Way, the second novel of the American Craftsmen, to my editor. Working on a second book has felt different: I’ve experienced a little stress due to heightened expectations (mine and others), but I’ve also had the satisfaction of meeting a creative and business demand. I’m looking forward to the next one.
